Huberdeau is not an elite player. He will never be able to put this team on his back and make them a winner. Some of you have already posted that he needs better winger to be successful. Why then are we going to pay him 10.5 when he needs help. God forbid that I would mention MacKinnon or even McDavid needing help. Either one of them and several others would have stepped on the ice and provided more than he ever will. This continued justification for him is just b.s. So what if Sutter put him on the ice for the last shift. That doesn't mean he will suddenly be the hero. If he gave as much as Lucic, he might be the player we thought we were getting. To hell with trading away the whole team to make him look good. Do whatever necessary to move him, Kadri and Marstrom. Rebuild while we can before we have to go through again what we've had to go through for the last 30 years. But probably as long as fans keep filling the seats, change will never happen.
